ABSTRACT
Rob Krier is one of those rare architects who design as painters and paint as architects, almost instinctively and by necessity, in order to better embrace the wholeness and immediacy of creation. Instead of fragmenting and deconstructing a design endeavour into various scale phases and chronological process stages it maintains unity. In order to seize the fullness of genius and life of a design idea or in order to craft the project comprehensively, Rob generously uses and masters the capriccio with an astonishing virtuosity.
